Project:
What is “Downsampling”?
Across this body of work, images are treated less as records and more as memories.
Each piece begins with a photograph. A decisive Moment which is then sliced, mirrored, and rebuilt into repeating structures. The original scene remains present but unstable, shifting between recognition and abstraction. A landscape becomes a pattern. A figure becomes symmetry. A place becomes an impression.
The process mirrors how memory operates. We do not store perfect images of experience; we reconstruct them each time we recall them. Details move, emphasis changes, and fragments align just enough to feel coherent. What remains is not the event itself, but a version shaped by perception and time.
These works continue an ongoing investigation across my projects:
breaking images apart in order to understand how they are understood.
Earlier pieces compressed time into a single frame and dismantled faces into uncertain identities. Here the focus moves to recollection and how familiarity can persist even when accuracy dissolves.
The kaleidoscopic structure becomes a visual metaphor for remembering: repetition, distortion, and recognition existing simultaneously.
The photographs used span years of travel, yet they are less about documenting place than about how places survive in our minds. They resemble memories more than documents. this is because if you really think about something what you are remembering is partial, shifting, and slightly misaligned.
Not inaccurate.
